Confidentiality Notice:

Juvenile cases are confidential, and usually we cannot even
acknowledge that a specific juvenile case exists. The Clerk's
Office can provide information in person, however, in most
circumstances, you must be a party in a case in order to receive
case
information. ID may be required to receive
the information, pursuant to Welfare & Institutions Code § 802.

The Juvenile Division is located in the Ukiah Courthouse.

Forms and Filing

Forms may be found on our Forms and Filing section on our

All paperwork must be typewritten or nearly written in black ink.

There are no filing fees for Juvenile cases.

COPIES OF COURT DOCUMENTS

Requests for copies or certified copies of a document may be made in person at the Clerk's Office or submitted
in writing by mail. We cannot take requests over the phone. Various copy, search, and certification fees may apply.

VIEWING JUVENILE CASE FILES

Juvenile case files may only be viewed in person at the courthouse. Specific information cannot be conveyed over the phone
or through e-mail. Juvenile case files are stored at the Ukiah Courthouse but can be sent to the Ten Mile Branch
Court in Fort Bragg for viewing.

You may call ahead of time so the file can be ready for viewing when you arrive at the courthouse. However, due to
confidentiality of Juvenile cases, you will need to provide the case name and number. We are not able to acknowledge that
the case exists - the clerk will tell you that they will pull the file for you if it exists.

TRANSFER-IN CASES

Other courts transferring dependency or delinquency cases to our court may phone the Juvenile Division during business hours to
set a date for the transfer-in hearing. Days and times of transfer-in hearings are noted in the calendar plan below.
